  No more Subarus for OUR family - 2005 Subaru Baja
  By disgusted - January 23 - 3:16 am

  Lets see...the transmission went out at 3,000 miles. The carpet had to be replaced because of a poorly designed mat-holder. The trim is crooked, the mileage stinks, the warranty offered by the company is not comparable with other manufacturers. Should I keep going? Oh I suggested a friend buy a Subaru as well and her review would be similar to mine...NOT TOO HOT! Together, our invoice paperwork for all the trips weve made to have items examined/repaired could reforest a small country.

  i just love it. - 2005 Subaru Baja
  By robert meydrech - November 13 - 8:13 am

  Get up and go. Just perfect on the road. Every body looks at it (what is it?). I am 66 years old. and is just great for my wife and two grand kids. Is it a truck or a car? Shopping is great with this.

  2004 BAJA Turbo - 2005 Subaru Baja
  By Gene Forget - October 24 - 1:53 pm

  I actually own a 2004 Turbo Baja. This is the second Outback type that we own, and my wife and I love it. I wanted a WRX, but I couldnt justify it, as it wasnt practical. THIS, I can justify, as it serves many purposes. So far mileage is good, it is still breaking in, and it is just plain old fun to drive.

  Great for the money - 2005 Subaru Baja
  By Alberto - October 19 - 4:23 pm

  Great AWD for the money. I feel in control when the road becomes unpredictable. Im beginning to like the exteriors styling. Its so much fun to drive, next best thing after BMW 325. Stop reading and go buy one.

  Went from 4x4 pickup to Baja - 2005 Subaru Baja
  By trakonus - August 7 - 10:00 am

  I purchased this truck about a month and a half ago, I wish it came out when I bought my dakota a few years ago. It fit my needs perfectly. It handles great and the upgraded sound system is great. I would recommend this vehicle to anyone. My neighbor used to be a mechanic for subarus up north, and he said as long as i use their oil filter and follow the maintenance log it will last a long long time.

  I love my Baja - 2005 Subaru Baja
  By Diane Garmo - June 26 - 6:56 am

  My Red Baja is the perfect vehicle for me. It has just enough cargo space as well as passenger seats. I am able to enjoy the best of car and truck features with the reliability of all wheel drive.

  Perfect match for my active lifestyle - 2005 Subaru Baja
  By Mike Custodio - June 22 - 3:50 am

  Bought my turbo baja with 56k on it, and racked up 10k in 6 months. While there is both positive and negative attitude about it, the turbo baja matches my lifestyle perfectly. It excels in Back country roads, carrying kayak, mtn bikes, and occasional landscaping items. Performance and handling excel that of a true truck. I love trucks, but I love my baja better. Downsides: Get the Bed ext. Turbo lag and reluctant downshifts sap power. But once you get going, your gone. Frequent oil changes: every 3,000 miles for turbos. My ABS unit somehow decided to fail. It will cost $1200 to replace, dealership unsure what caused the failure. Otherwise, this subie matches my lifestyle and driving habits

  new owner - 2005 Subaru Baja
  By charles young - June 21 - 4:16 am

  I am new in the Subaru area. I bought a Baja to play with. I like it very much, but it is to early to really give an experienced report. Will do that later. So far it has been what I expected.

  Head Turning Winner - 2005 Subaru Baja
  By gayleen jaeger - May 29 - 9:30 pm

  Where else can you get a four seater, four door, pick-up with extended bed and roof rack that is a head turner every where you go? All this and be rated as a passenger car for insurance? Ive never had a problem and get through Buffalo winters with ease.

  Two4one - 2005 Subaru Baja
  By Shad3d - May 8 - 10:00 am

  This is an awesome mini-truck. You have both a quality sports car and the utility of a small pick up truck. It drives/handles like a european sports sedan with comfort and pep, and you have the open trunk space for those many or large items during shopping or moving.
